1 374 161 Specification of Letters Patent.

No Drawing. Application filed March 24, 1920. Serial No. 368,281.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHESTER S. HATHA- WAY a citizen of the United States, residing at uincy, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Paint, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to the production of paints adapted for use in various industries. It has relation especially to the production of coating materials, however.

Among the many uses to which my invention may be applied are the following: The compositions may be used for protecting smoke stacks, locomotive boilers, gas tanks, structural steel and iron, metal containers, galvanized iron and tin roofs, and metal work of all kinds which is to be protected from the weather, acids, gases, heat and electrolysis. They are also applicable to the protection of wood surfaces for weather proofing and fireproofing, including a preservation of the surfaces of vehicles, railroad cars, shi decks, roofs, stucco building, telegraph an telephone poles and piles. They are also valuable for the waterproofing of concrete foundations and reservoirs and for protecting buildings from the staining action of chemical compounds. They are adapted also for the protection of hulls from fouling and as a material which may be used for calking the scams or cracks of vessels. They are applicable also to the coating of flexible fabrics as they are flexible to a very high degree. They are especially useful, furthermore, for paints as they may be applied at any tlme of the year without the temperature having any substantial in fluence u n the drying of the same. These compositions are useful also particularly for insulating urposes and for such purposes may be ma e either in the form of a paint or a paste for producing insulating blocks or covering electric cables, .etc.

The object of m invention is to provide be above character and ferent ways. The object of my invention is especially to provide compositions having an extraordinary degree of resistance to attacks of various kinds inasmuch as they contain as a base water gas tar and preferably the lightest grade thereof. Another object is to provide compositions containing materials which will efi'ectively dry the water in the water gas tar notwithstanding the high percentage of water resent and to provide substances which wil enable the water gas tar to become effectively and homogeneously mixed with the other constituents of the compositions.

Further objects of my invention will appear from the detailed description thereof contained hereinafter.

TVhile my invention is capable of embodiment in many different forms for the purpose of illustration I shall describe only certain forms of the same hereinafter.

For example, I may carry out my inven-- tion in any one of the following different ways.

To make a shingle coating which is not only fire resistant but waterproof, I mix toget er:

. bbl. Atlas Portland cement,

30 lbs. as es os er,

15 lbs. prec p tated resinate of man anese 3 gals. water as tar which may be any grade of the tar that collects in the gas mains of a water gas plant but which is preferably the upper gn eha1 f gf the ta la *er which is there collected and which contains 4,0 to wl ater,

1 ga linseed oi and lgalsiona litlia or benzin.

e a ove are an ground to ether in a water cooled mill. The naphtha or benzin is used as a solvent of the resinate of manganese and these two constituents are valuable in bringing about the mixing of the Portland cement with the water gas tar. The asbestos fiber provides flexibility and strength to the composition and the linseed oil is an oily vehicle for the same. The Portland cement takes up the water from the water gas tar as well as from any other constituents containing water present. After the above have been ground together I add thereto:

25 gals. water as tar of the same grade,

15 gals. linseed Oll,

1 gal. o a so u ion of sodium silicate containing approxlmately 3036 parts by weight of sodium silicate in 7 0-64 parts by weight of water,

7 gals. raw menhaden oil, crude.

If desired, before the grinding, colors may be introduced and glriegs may e 1ntroduced after the grinding to any desired Exclaim preferably extent. The sodium silicate acts as a fireproofing, thickening and hardening constituent and the menhaden oil is an oily vehicle to supplement the linseed oil. 5 A truck coating made in accordance with my invention may be made containing:

65 gals. water as tar of the same grade,

25 gals udansi ha menni l of gentlen ss, and

5 gals. of aphtha or benzin.

When these constitiients have dissolved, there may be added to the same:

5 gals. of any drier and """150 lbs. of my s ecial )i ment.

To this may be added any desired quantity of colors. The special pigment re- 1 ferred to would, for example, be comprised he following:

18 lbs. Portland cement,

3 lbs. asbestos fiber,

1% lbs. resinate of manganese,

5 lbs. mineral red colors,

2% pts. water gas tar of the same grade, i a}; pt. linseed oil,

1 1% qts. naphtha,

; 1% pt. sodium silicate solution containing approximately 30-36 parts by weight of E sodium silicate, 70-64. parts by weight of water, and

2 qts. menhaden oil, to which may be added, if desired: i 2% gals. water gas tar of the same grade, 1 1% gals. linseed oil,

tity of driers. 4 As a coating for iron I may make a composition containing: 65 gals. water gas tar of the same grade,

' 25 gals. crude menhaden oil,

30 lbs. resinate ofmanganese, 5 gals. naphthaor benzin.

When these materials have dissolved, I may add thereto:

5 gals. of any drier; and 100 lbs. of the spatial pigment, omittin therefrom the linseed oil. To this may be afidd dth i filorsl ffdesired, es- I pecially Ifor the first coating to1 be placed on iron omiitthl secia iggent and substi ute any 0t I er 61 85ers and from this composition therefore, under these circumstances, the hydra l a smoke stack coating I may provide 1 a pomplosition containing h 0 ga 5. water as tar o t e same ade 2O gals. grnde menhaden oil, gr

1 gal. of a s olution of sodium silicate con tainlng 30-36 parts by weight of silicate of 15 lbslfyfglfgaulfcemeng'as for example i fb esi ams f I 5 lbs. asbestos, short fiber.

These mgreamd be heated together and hgig for 20 minutes o funtil'the mixture ropes, that is will hang to a stick in the form of a rope. This particular composition is of arubber like character and good .for the casing of wires in the place of metal pipes. It is very fire resistant, and will wear very well as it is flexible.

To provide an insulating paint I may make a composition containing:

1 gal. grater gas tar of the same grade,

J; lb. resinate of manganese,

To this may be added any desired colors, from which linseed oil may be omi fitd, if desired. To iifix the above product the resinate of manganese is dissolved in the benzin in a grinding machine, then the cement and asbestos and enough crude menhaden oil and water gas tar are added to make a proper mixture for grinding, which should be rather tacky, and the remaining ingredients are added thereto, after which all the ingredients are ground together.

To provide an insulating material in paste form which may be used for making insulating blocks and covering electric cables by wiping joints therewith, etc., I make a composition containing:

1. lb. Portlgndpement,

2 lbs. Taslfisto s,

:1- lb. re 'sifite of manganese, which are emsnea'ni a grinder after which I add to the same 2 q i llzeaasnili taming and heat the entire mixture together until the if)? is thorou hl dissolved in the soy bean oil.

1 gal. benzin, pt. soy bean oil,

32 ozs. man anese dioxid.

ompositions made in this way will quickly harden irrespective of atmospheric conditions, although it has been found that the speed of hardening is somewhat increased indoors if light has access to the same. Furthermore, such compositions will readily harden under water.
